We can change the rendering if they're aesthetically unpleasing. I'm fond on HN's footnote fashion too.

I love HN-style footnotes too, but always found it amusing here, since the explicit linking usually back-links to content one inch away that's still visible on the screen.

Mhh, I see. I think we should do that then.
Found another issue though:
The footnotes title renders pretty big as a root comment for some reason
And the reference to the note and the backreference is indeed really nice. I didn't appreciate that enough even though I implemented that myself in my blog.

Should be easy to change. I never liked the heading or the backlink icon.
  1. replace the title with a horizontal line
  2. replace superscript with [1] link
  3. replace numbered list with [1]-like numbering
  4. replace the backlink icon by making the numbering the backlink
I'd be nearly satisfied with just (1) and (4).
